In his first big league start since May 2021, May gave up just one hit, struck out nine and walked two.
The Marlins managed just three hits, with Jon Berti getting two of them, as they lost for the seventh time in their last nine games.
May wobbled early, giving up a single to Miami’s Joey Wendle on his third pitch. After Wendle stole second base, May walked JJ Bleday and Brian Anderson on eight consecutive balls, but struck out Nick Fortes to end the threat.

Hoeing faced the minimum three batters in the second inning, but was hit hard again in the third. Mookie Betts, Trea Turner and Freeman all singled to open the inning, with Freeman driving in a run for a 4-0 lead. After Hoeing got a sense of revenge on Smith with a strikeout, Justin Turner hit his three-run home run to left, his ninth on the season.Justin Turner #10 of the Los Angeles Dodgers celebrates a three-run home run against the Miami Marlins in the third inning at Dodger Stadium on August 20, 2022 in Los Angeles, California.
